The SAN will "pay for itself in a year," he said. "I'd rather spend money on hardware than on a data center."

Maliyil said using support services from Dell Inc., which supplied the Clariion systems under its reseller agreement with EMC Corp., eliminates the need for additional staffers to run the new systems.

With the new setup, Maliyil noted, Data Guard can support rapid growth. "Because we bought this, we have room to grow -- even if we had another explosive year like last year," he said.
